This edited collection examines how Western European countries have responded and been influenced by the apartheid system in South Africa. The debate surrounding apartheid in South Africa underwent a shift in the second half of the 20th<\/sup>\u00a0century, with long held positive, racist European opinions of white South Africans slowly declining since decolonisation in the 1960s, and the increase in the importance of human rights in international politics. While previous studies have approached this question in the context of national histories, more or less detached from each other, this edited collection offers a broader insight into the transnational and entangled histories of Western European and South African societies. The contributors use exemplary case studies to trace the change of perception, covering a plurality of reactions in different societies and spheres: from the political and social, to the economic and cultural. At the same time, the collection emphasizes the interconnections of those reactions to what has been called the last \u2018overtly racist regime\u2019 (George Frederickson) of the twentieth century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Table of contents<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Introduction<\/p>\n\n\n\n Knud Andresen, Sebastian Justke, Detlef Siegfried<\/p>\n\n\n\n Moral and Economy<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Between Goodwill and Sanctions: Swedish and German Corporations in South Africa and the Politics of Codes of Conduct<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Knud Andresen<\/p>\n\n\n\n Perceptions of Petroleum: The British Anti-apartheid Campaign Against Shell<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Jakob Skovgaard<\/p>\n\n\n\n Shopping Against Apartheid: Consumer Activism and the History of AA Enterprises (1986\u20131991)<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Benjamin M\u00f6ckel<\/p>\n\n\n\n Apartheid in Culture and Media<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The Comic Representation of Apartheid on British Television in the Late 1960s<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Tal Zalmanovich<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2018This Peculiar Fact of Living History\u2019: Invoking Apartheid in Black British Writing<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Andrea Thorpe<\/p>\n\n\n\n Anti-apartheid and the Politicisation of Pop Music: Controversies Around the Mandela Concert in 1988<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Detlef Siegfried<\/p>\n\n\n\n Dutch Dialogues with Afrikaners: The Netherlands and the Cultural Boycott Against the Apartheid Regime in the 1980s<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Vincent Jurg, Vincent Kuitenbrouwer<\/p>\n\n\n\n
